Here on the Spectrum - ABA Therapy Downtown Vancouver, located at 1238 Seymour Street in the heart of Vancouver, BC, is dedicated to providing exceptional Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy services. Our center, proudly operated by HERE Consulting, is committed to guiding children towards achieving success and happiness that is uniquely meaningful to them.
ABA therapy is a highly effective, evidence-based intervention designed to improve socially significant behaviors across various domains of a child's life. At Here on the Spectrum, we tailor our approach meticulously to each child's specific needs, strengths, and challenges. Our experienced therapists work collaboratively with parents, caregivers, and educators to create a supportive and consistent environment for learning and growth.
We understand that every child is unique, and therefore, our therapy plans are individualized. We focus on building essential skills such as communication (verbal and non-verbal), social interaction, play skills, adaptive living skills, and reducing challenging behaviors. Our goal is not just to teach skills in isolation, but to help children integrate these skills into their daily routines, fostering independence and enhancing their overall quality of life.
Our dedicated team at Here on the Spectrum - ABA Therapy Downtown Vancouver is passionate about making a positive difference in the lives of children and their families. We believe in a partnership approach, ensuring that parents are actively involved in the process and equipped with strategies to support their child's progress at home and in the community.
Whether your child is just beginning their journey or has been receiving therapy for some time, our comprehensive assessment and ongoing evaluation ensure that the intervention remains effective and relevant. We are here to provide compassionate, professional, and high-quality ABA therapy services right here in the vibrant Downtown Eastside area of Vancouver.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: What is ABA Therapy?
ABA, or Applied Behavior Analysis, is a scientific approach to understanding how human behavior is learned. It focuses on identifying the environmental factors that influence behavior and then uses techniques based on principles of behavior analysis to modify those behaviors. ABA therapy measures changes in behavior and uses positive reinforcement to encourage desired skills and reduce challenging ones, aiming for meaningful and lasting change.
Q2: What ages do you work with?
We primarily work with children from early intervention age (typically birth) up to adolescents and young adults. Our services are tailored to the developmental stage and specific needs of each individual child.
Q3: Do you accept insurance?
We accept private pay clients. While we cannot directly bill insurance companies, we provide detailed invoices that you can submit to your insurance provider for potential reimbursement. We recommend contacting your insurance company directly to understand your specific coverage for ABA therapy services.
Q4: How long does ABA therapy typically last?
The duration of ABA therapy varies significantly depending on the child's age, specific goals, presenting challenges, and family resources. Intensive programs (e.g., 20-40 hours per week) might last several years, while less intensive programs could be shorter. Progress is regularly monitored, and therapy goals are reviewed and adjusted, so the program evolves over time.
Q5: What is the process for starting therapy?
To begin the process, you can contact us at (778) 608-2398 or visit our website https://aba-therapy.ca/. We will schedule an initial consultation to discuss your concerns, learn about your child's history and needs, and determine if ABA therapy is appropriate. Following the consultation, we may conduct an initial assessment (which could involve direct observation, interviews with parents/caregivers, and review of records) to develop a comprehensive individualized treatment plan (ITP) with measurable goals.
